Patch note for version 0.14.1001.2057.
Hello, and welcome everyone to our next set of patch notes! This will likely become our “regular column” for the next couple of months. An Early Access launch is certainly no time relax, and in addition to eliminating bugs and finalizing localization, we’re also adding some additional content that should breathe life into the trackless desert.
Thank you to all the concerned users who regularly send us bug reports about anything that spoils your immersion or gameplay, or interferes with playthrough. And yes, hello too to our torrenting friends. We’re grateful for your input, but please make sure you’re running (pirating) the most recent version. Or another option is to purchase the official game and get the latest updates automatically. :)
